    Chapter Index

    The woman in front of her is not only beautiful but also elegant. She is wearing an aqua blue pullover sweater and a gray pencil skirt. She stands tall and looks capable.

    Although well-maintained, she looked a bit older, and her facial features were similar to those of Xu Chen’s family. Kaiyuan speculated that she might be his mother or sister.

    So this is not his other love nest.

    Kaiyuan was a little stunned because of his wrong guess, and also angry at himself.

    She is jealous!

    Damn it, she is actually jealous!

    “Thank you, but sorry, I just…”

    “I heard that you were the one who sent the Chen family to the hospital.” Xu’s mother interrupted her lightly, not letting her refusal come out.”Thank you very much. If it weren’t for you, my son might have died of illness at home.”

    “No, I am…”

    Xu’s mother stepped forward and took her hand.

    “I hope you don’t think my skills are bad.”

    “Oh, of course not, but…”

    “I knew you were coming. To thank you, I cooked two extra dishes. The Chen family didn’t know my intentions and blamed me. He can’t eat vegetables, so why should I cook? Do you think this child has a conscience?”

    Did you cook two dishes especially for her?

    Doesn’t this… not give her any room to refuse?

    Even if Kaiyuan can be hard-hearted towards the Xu Chen family, how can he have the nerve to reject his elders in every possible way?

    Seeing that Kaiyuan didn’t refuse, Xu’s mother took advantage of the situation and pulled him in.

    The Xu family is a building within a building. The interior decoration is simple and elegant, the building materials are meticulous and noble, and every piece of furniture is of high quality, even better than the Xu Chen family’s.

    Kaiyuan speculated that most of Xu Chen’s parents were from wealthy families. Xu Chen’s family was the third generation of wealth, and their family assets were astonishing.

    They are people from another world.

    She thought that even if Xu Chen’s family really liked her, she would not be able to be their wife based on her family background.

    When I think about it like this, I can’t help but feel glad that I left early and didn’t waste a lot of my youth.

    Xu’s mother brought Kaiyuan to the dining room.

    There is a long table in the dining room that can accommodate ten to twelve people. In the center of the table are potted flowers made of lilies, white phalaenopsis, hydrangea, giant wheel orchids and other flowers.

    Xu’s mother noticed her gaze and smiled, “I did it myself, is it okay?”

    “It’s beautiful.” She nodded.

    “If I hadn’t become a lawyer, I would have worked as a floral designer. After I retire, I plan to open a flower shop to fulfill my childhood wish.” Xu’s mother smiled and asked, “Do you like flowers?”

    “I like it.”

    “Then do you want to go to class with me?” Xu’s mother invited her enthusiastically.

    “Uh…” Going to class with Xu Chen’s mother?

    “Mom, you are taking an advanced course, why do you ask me to go?” Xu Chen’s family took a seat on the dining chair.

    “How do you know she can’t take advanced courses?” Xu’s mother glanced at her son.

    “She has never learned flower arranging.”

    “Have you never learned it?” Xu’s mother asked Kaiyuan.

    “No.” Kaiyuan shook his head.

    “Otherwise, you can take the beginner’s course.”

    “I…I may not have that time,” Kaiyuan looked embarrassed.”Sorry.”

    His mother is so strange and too enthusiastic, right?

    Is it just because she sent Xu Chen’s family to the hospital?

    “That’s it.” Xu’s mother looked regretful.”By the way, sit down quickly. I was so busy talking that I forgot to ask you to sit down.”

    Xu’s mother pulled out the chair for her, and Kaiyuan thanked her and sat down.

    “Because the Chen family has a stomachache, we eat porridge. Do you mind?”

    “No, I don’t mind.”

    “That’s good.”

    During the meal, Kaiyuan had been worried that Xu’s mother would ask questions about her relationship with Xu Chen’s family, her family background, etc., but she did not ask these questions. Instead, she talked about her affairs with Xu Chen’s family, and cleverly guided Kaiyuan to talk about her own affairs.

    The meal was not as embarrassing and lengthy as Kaiyuan imagined. On the contrary, it was quite enjoyable.

    After the meal, Xu’s mother made tea again and took out snacks for Kaiyuan to eat.

    It was nearly nine o’clock before Xu’s mother let them go back.

    “Kaiyuan, please send the Chen family back if you please.”

    Xu’s mother carefully put the car keys she had brought back into her palm again.

    “You’re welcome, by the way.”

    “Thank you, drive carefully.”

    After they left, Xu’s mother tidied up the house. At about half past eleven, her husband came back.

    While arranging her husband’s suit, Xu’s mother said in a casual tone:

    “I saw a girl that the Chen family likes today and had dinner with her.”

    “He brought his girlfriend back to covet you?” When he wasn’t at home?

    Xu’s father remained silent on the surface, but deep down he was jealous.

    “Not a girlfriend yet…” Xu’s mother briefly talked about the illness in Xu Chen’s family.

    Father Xu was silent for a moment.

    “How about that girl…?”

    “An ordinary girl.” Xu’s mother smiled slightly and said, “But she is frank and upright and has good conduct.”

    “Don’t you just want to be Cinderella!” Xu’s father said disdainfully.

    “No, you are wrong.” Xu’s mother covered her mouth and chuckled, “They don’t want to pay attention to your son at all, and,” she sighed.”I don’t want to curry favor with me. I don’t think I can hope to be someone’s mother-in-law yet.”

    “Ah?” Xu’s father turned his head in surprise.
